Childhood is one of the most favorable stages to learn an instrument or start exploring music inside. Not only does it help the child to have discipline, it also helps them develop many areas of the brain. Learning and discipline while having fun is one of the best ways to introduce them to music.
My practical method is focusing on having fun while we learn. Children usually get tired so easily but if we play with them rhythm, notes, high and low pitches and the most important factor : play their favorites songs, they will love having lessons and the most important thing, they will learn without noticing.
